FOREST FIRES.
A Great Deal of Valuable Timber De-

MARQUETTE, Mich, May pa despatch

near the Wisconsin line, states that at 5
O'Clock yesterday evening, heavy forest fires
had burned their way to within half a mile
OF the town, and were being rapidly driven
on by strong breeze All the inhabitants
are fighting the fire, with but little hope of
saving the town. A powder magazine had
exploded, and at last accounts another one,
containing 4Cc0 pounds Of giant powder, was
surrounded by fire. Telegraph communica-
nation is difficult to obtain. No county on
the Peninsula is now free from the fires, and
hard fighting alone has saved the towns
threatened, except Whitney and Lake Lin
den, The logging camps have been entirely
obllterated in many cases, and the losses
will be large. The fires are within mile Of
Marquette, and the smoke makes the air in
the city almost intolerable. Unless there is
rain soon, there are fears of even worse re-
suits than those already recorded.

whole series of facts from the beginning,
and have especially seen with commenda-

1t has been indeed a great grief to us 10
see the rebellion which has arisen against
your authority in your city through craftily
devised Vaccinations and the open conspir-
acy OF iactious men, and our anguish has
been all the greater since, from information
lately conveyed to us, we have it that there
are some others of the clergy imbued with
the doctrineslof this priest, who have not
hesitated TO adhere to him, although the
clergy generally of the whole diocese and the
greater and better part of the laity gladly
remained with unchanged will, in faithful
obedience and loyalty to you. 1t is, indeed,
grateful to us, and approved by us, that you
have labored to crush ere they spraDg up
the vicious seeds of doctrines scattered un-
der the pretext Of helping the masses. Nor
IS 1t less to your praise that, with long suf-
ferlng and patience, you have not ceased
with watchful Industry to calm proud and
restless spirits, although they have not re-
Trained from ISLANDERS and reproaehes

1t is fitting then that you should be of good
heart, and with unwayering firmness apply
all your strength to the work of salvation
OF souls and in defending the sanctity of
faith and discipline. Nevertheless, led by
Christian charity you will leave nothing un-
tried that, with paternal benevolence, you
may embrace those who are deceived by
this new doctrine If they return to wiser
counsels. We, however, will never permit
any injury to your good name and dignity,
much less to the authority of this Apostolic
See, and we will not fail to make known to
you, through the Sacred Congregation of
the Propaganda timely measures for the
correction of the rebellion. Meanwhile we
earnestly pray God of consolation that
he will console you, venerable brother, tried
by so many cares, and, as pledge of His
divine favor and proof Of our special affec-
tion for you. we lovingly bestow upon you,
the clergy, and the people committed to
your care, the apostolic benediction.

BASE BALL.
New England League.
poErLANDs, 13; sALEMs, Q

PORTLANDS, 10, SALEMS, "
The attendance at the Portland grounds
was small yesterday, but those who staid
away missed good game of ball. The
Salems play strong game, both at the bat
and in the field. In fact, they show up
rather better than any other team in the
league that has visited Portland this season.
Although the Portlands gained strong lead
in the early part OF the game, yet the visitors
by steady work had pulled up to within one
run Of them at the end Of the seventh inning
The Portlands won entirely through their
strong hitting.
The Portlands opened up on Demaris in
the first inning in a way that would rattle
most pitchers. Dickerson, Hatfield, Thayer,
DAWN and Duffy each hit for a single 0ase
earning four runs. The POrtlands were
blanked for the next three innings, going out
on double plays in the second and third. In
the fifth, after Thayer and DAWN had hit
safe, Schoeneck got a tremendous hit over
left field fence, making Somers SILK nat
home run. In the sixth Andrus hit Tor three
bags and Dickerson's hit brought him home.
The next three men fouled out. In the
seventh Portland scored two runs on errors,
after the side should have been out In the
eighth, hits by DAWN and Schoeneck earned
a run. In the ninth the bases We're full with
nobody out. Andrus and Dickerson each
failed to get the ball out of the diamond ;
Hatfield sent fly to right field, but Thayer
brought in two men by clean hit.
For the Salems, five out of the first six
men at bat hit to Andrus and were put out
at first base, while the other man struck out
In the third inning the visitors got two runs
on hits by Quinn and Demaris and wild
pitch by Clarkson. In the fifth they got
run on hits by 0Brien and Leighton and a
passed ball by Duffy. In the sixth and
seventh the visitors put in some good work
with the bat and earned four runs, errors by
Clarkson and Barber each letting in one
additional run.
Special mention should be made Of the
playing Of Andrus and Thayer, although
Dickerson, Hatfield, DAWN and Schoeneck
took everything that came to them. Barber
played in place of Lufbery, and his errors
must be charged to his want of active prac-
tice for several days past. The batting Of
Dickerson was very hard; DAWN got there,
too, four times out of five. Barber also did
good work with the stick. For Salem, the
fielding of Lynch and the catching Of Ladeau
We're good. Quinn ledsat the bat. The score

THE NATIONAL DRILL.
Arrival of the Nealley Rifles at the
National Capital.

WASHINGTON, May 23.-The Nealley Rifles
arrived here from Lewiston after pleasant
trip and have gone into camp.
The scenes at the national capital today
are unusually interesting. The ellipse Of the
White lot is fenced in, and spectators have
been making money by selling privileges for
liquor shops and for other privileges. An
order, however, has been issued to the effect
that the White lot and other premises occu-
pied for the drill are public reservations,
upon which, under the law, it is not permit
ted to sell liquor.
SO the privilege to keep a bar on the prem
ises will be cancelled, although man had
paid 1900 for the privilege and had incurred
some expense with the expectation of reap
ing rich harvest. Now the question is
raised whether, if the law forbids the sale of
liquors on government reservations, it does
not also as emphatically forbid the occupa-
tion by any persons whatever Of the public
property. Fencing has been carried on to
such an extent on the White House reserva-
tion that large and handsome public lawn,
recovered at great expense from a waste, has
been enclosed. and private association of
citizens, in the hope Of sproft, will charge
the public a fee for entering the enclosure.
The fencing is unsightly it spoils pros
pect unequaled in any city in the country,
and the indications are that it will confine
within its limits one of the most dismal ex-
hlbition failures on record. The visiting
troops camp in tents that have been erected
about the foot Of the Washington monument.
Fifteen thousand seats have been provided
in view of the drill field.

Consolidating Revenue Districts.
WASHINGTON, May 2S.-Commissioner
Miller of the internal revenue service, in
speaking of the consolidation of internal
revenue districts announced yesterday, said
that it was intended solely to save money to
the people. He thought the collection of the
internul revenue was costing the govern
ment about 100000 too much every year,
and, with the approval of the President and
Secretary Fairchild, he had proposed the
project of consolidation adopted and an
nounced yesterday.
"Take the case of Maine. New Hampshire
and Vermont" he said, leach Of whom has
hitherto had a separate collector One col
lector will do just as well. The collections
are made through the deputies, and one man
can direct them in those States just as well
as three, and then we save the salaries and
the office expenses of the other two. Why,
in Vermont last year the collections only
amounted to $4,000. 1t is extravagant to
maintain separate collectors office Just to
collect that amount. Then in Massachusetts

ened Revolt of the Chinese.

NEW YORK, May 23-Queen Kapiolani has
received intelligence by mail, and is disturb
ed thereby, to the effect that the Chinese are
creating disturbance in Hawaii on account
of the restriction act and the opium prohibi-
tion law, and the 5000 Celestials on the isl
ands are loud in their complaints about this
legislation, which is Iinjuring their interests.
There are many rich Chinese merchants in
Hawaii, and they are all engaged more or
less iu the trade in opium and immigration.
There are thousands engaged in the traffic,
and their prosperity is imperiled by these
royal laws. Capt. Mccullough. of the brig
w. L. Irwin, which recently arrived at San
Francisco, direct from the Hawaiian capital,
states that the streets. were filled with excit,.
ed Cinnamon, and the walls were covered
with bloOdthirsty posters.
